KITCHEN ARTICLE.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented May 14, 1918.

Application led March 1I, 1918. Serial No. 221,820.

To all 'whom t may concern.'

Be it known that I, CARL C. P. LUND, a citizen of the United States,residing at Oakfield, in the county of Fond du Lac and VState ofWisconsin, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in KitchenArticles, of which the following is a specification, reference being hadto the accompanying drawings.

This invention relates to certain improvements in kitchen articles andit is an object of the invention to provide a novel and improved articleof this general character which may be employed with convenience andfacility as a masher for potatoes or the like, for working color inoleomargarin, and for other purposes as the occasions of practice mayrequire.

It is also an object of the invention to provide a novel and improveddevice of this general character which includes a body of glass andwhich has its working face or end protected by a metallic shoe andwhereby a structure is provided which may be readily and convenientlycleansed and maintained sanitary.

The invention consists in the details of construction and in thecombination and arrangement of the several parts of my improved kitchenarticle whereby certain important advantages are attained and the devicerendered simpler, less expensive and otherwise more convenient andadvantageous for use, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.

The novel features of my invention will hereinafter be deiinitelyclaimed.

In order that my invention may be the better understood, I will nowproceed to describe the same with reference to the accompanyingdrawings, wherein:

Figure l is a view partly in elevation and partly in sectionillustrating a kitchen article constructed in accordance with anembodiment of my invention; and

Fig. 2 is a view in plan of the inner face of the metallic shoe or plateas herein ineluded.

As disclosed in the accompanying draw-.

ings B denotes a body preferably formed of glass and which, as hereindisclosed, is in the form of a bottle and which has the outer endportion of the neck 1 thereof provided with an annular outstanding bead2 and which arrangement permits the requisite attachment of a string orother flexible member to the neck portion 1 in order to afford y 'axialcenter is provided with an inwardly directed headed knob or extension 6.The knobs or extensions 5 and 6 are embedded within the body B wherebythe shoe or plate 3 is effectively maintained in applied position. Theshoe or plate 3 is applied to the body B at the time said body is beingformed and the glass is in a molten state. It is thought to be clearlyapparent that a device constructed as hereinbefore set forth is highlysanitary as the same may be readily and conveniently cleansed and thereis no possibility of any matter being retained or absorbed by the bodyB. It will also be self-evident that the shoe or plate 3 will serve toprevent chipping orV other injury to the working end of the body duringa working operation, such as mashing potatoes or the like or workingcolor in oleomargarin.

From the foregoing description, it is thought to be obvious that akitchen article constructed in accordance with my invention isparticularly well adapted for use by reason of the convenience andfacility with which it may be assembled and operated and it will also beobvious that my invention is susceptible of some change and modificationwithout departing from the principles and spirit thereof and for thisreason I do not wish to be understood as limiting myself to the precisearrangement and formation of the several parts herein shown in carryingout my invention in practice except as hereinafter claimed.

I claim: n

A potato masher comprising a body formed of molded material, a shoeoverlying the working end face of the masher, the
